This study aims to identify determinants in managing the goods for local government in Yahukimo regency. The research question designed was what were the determinants of the goods for local government management? The aspects in this research comprised of; 1) bookkeeping, inventory and reporting which were based on registration process of the goods for local government; and 2) the recording that is based on category and codification of the goods for local government. The management of goods for local government is mandated under the Regulation of Ministry of Home Affairs no. 17 in 2007 titled Technical Management of The Goods for Regional/Local Governments.

There were some factors of which determining this ineffectiveness. The limitations of human resources in terms of the qualities as well as quantities, the constraints of budget for the goods management, and low coordination within local government agencies were some of the identified caused of the ineffectiveness. From the inventory management context, the causes of ineffectiveness were the low number of staff for inventory, the unavailability of costs for inventory and the low skillful treasurers for government goods. Meanwhile, the reasons of low goods management reporting were the absence of punishments and rewards systems, the low human resources capacities in regards with government goods treasurers, and low commitments from managers of the local government regarding trainings to empower their staff.

Policy Direction

ABSTRACT Objective – The study aims to formulate a policy direction (through a model) among Philippine level 3 local government hospitals based on the predictors of Quality Patient Care (QPC). The predictors are cost-effectiveness, utilization of materials, services by human resources, accessibility, leadership and management and ethical standards as independent variables in relation to the dependent variable which is QPC. Methodology/Technique – Survey questionnaires and interviews were conducted to patients, hospital directors, doctors, nurses, administrative and ancillary officers. The study used descriptive (mean and standard deviation) and inferential (ordinary least squares and multiple regression analysis) statistics. Findings – The study revealed that the utilization of materials has the most influence/effect on QPC wherein an increase in 1% of materials brought about an increase of 0.55 % in QPC. Likewise, accessibility brought about an increase in QPC by 0.42 %; and services rendered by human resources brought about an increase in QPC by 0.05 %. Novelty – This is the first study of Philippine Level 3 local government hospitals which aims to formulate a policy direction (through a model) based on the predictors of QPC. This can be used by the national and local governments in devising policies to improve healthcare, particularly in the hospital industry.

Vantage Points

This essay offers a perspective on a new and reinvigorated research agenda for the study of U.S. local governments. It reports on the ideas and reflections of a set of local government scholars with different vantage points and varied substantive interests. Seven paramount themes or directions for a research agenda were identified, all of which contain numerous threads and thrusts: local government finance and economic development, local government management, intergovernmental relations, collaboration, public engagement, social equity, and institutional design. The essay offers some reasons for optimism about the future of U.S. local governments while also identifying cause for concern.

This study aims to examine the features of the creation and operation of ecomuseums at wide-area and (metropolitan) local government levels and to analyze their improvements and limitations based on an analysis of a case study on the “Gyeonggi Bay Ecomuseum.” This study also reveals the necessity and direction for ecomuseums led by metropolitan local governments. It attempts to find ways to expand the Gyeonggi Bay Ecomuseum and apply lessons from this ecomuseum to other planned wide-area ecomuseums in South Korea. Overall, this study intends to derive the sustainability of wide-area ecomuseums, and their utility and potential as a means to revitalize the region.  The Gyeonggi Bay Ecomuseum is a meaningful case study as it was created in a wide area called the Gyeonggi Bay and was led by a metropolitan local government, along with the official claim as an ecomuseum; the museum creation project also progressed in a phased approach. However, there are issues such as organization problems of the ecomuseum and the absence of resident participation, integrated programs, and an archive center.  Therefore, this study presents measures to overcome these obstacles: the establishment of a core ecomuseum and an exhibition center, the development of joint programs, the continuous security of funds and human resources, and measures to generate economic benefits for residents. This study also suggests spatial/functional expansion from being the “Gyeonggi Bay Ecomuseum” to the “Gyeonggi Province Ecomuseum.”   Keywords: Ecomuseum, Wide-area unit, Lead of local governments, Gyeonggi Bay, Regional revitalization

Practical Implications

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present a model to support governmental local managers in public budget optimization, based on an integration of methods. It was constructed to fill the gap related to weights definition in problematic, commonly performed subjective assessments. This model supports the decision making in budget distribution identifying the importance of sectors in local governments, captured by historical data. Design/methodology/approach The model was developed following three steps: the first step included the exploitation of the characteristics of local sectors represented by city departments and the data collection procedure using time series (TS). In the second one, the weights regarding the importance of each city department were calculated by the UTASTAR method and based on historical data from the first step. Finally, an objective function was formulated using linear programming and constraints based on law specifications, and as a result, an optimized projection for public budget distribution was performed. Findings The results demonstrated that the model can be more efficient to weights definition, considering the behavior of preferences by historical data and supporting local public resources optimization, also to comply with the legislation, being able to predict or project future values available on the budget. Research limitations/implications The theoretical and practical implications are related with a novelty in recognizing the weights for criteria by a historical behavior of preferences. It can be bringing important directions for budget distribution. The main limitation detected in this study was the difficulty to formulate an assessment involving an integrated opinion from local managers and the population. Practical implications First of all, with the correct allocation of resources, the government has a greater advantage to capture investments from the negotiation with development entities and banks. Second, an efficient local government management can promote compliance with legislation and more transparent public policies. Social implications The correct distribution of resources affects the life quality for citizens, since the government acts as a provider of essential services for the population like education, safety, health, particularly for citizens who depend exclusively on the services offered by the local government. Moreover, it can also affect the environment as resources for garbage collection, disposal services and sanitation and, finally, affect the city development such as infrastructure, taxes, etc. Originality/value It might be considered an original contribution mainly by the development of a procedure to capture values for weights by TS and meeting the manager’s requirements, based on analytical, statistical and mathematical tools integrated.
